Isn’t that true of all aesthetics?

I’ve visited over a dozen places ranging from built in the 80s to just finished construction a couple months ago. They all have the same problem; I thought we left popcorn ceilings behind in the last millenium but now there are popcorn walls, too.

I will try asking the landlords.

If you can even get it to stick in the first place anything you put on a textured wall and then pry off is likely to take the texture off with it. You will also probably have problems if your landlord inspects the property during your tenancy and you have made such a dramatic change without prior permission.

A better plan is to talk to each prospective landlord and ask whether they mind you redecorating by filling in the texture - they may be absolutely fine with you plastering over it if you get a professional paint job done, as it’s essentially you paying for free maintenance and upkeep of their investment property, and it shows you’re committed to being a stable long term tenant. They may be willing to allow it even if they’re not happy with it for the price of a clause in the contract promising you’ll put the texture back in when you leave or an extra security deposit to cover the cost of remediation afterwards.

Either way it’s a lot of money to put into someone else’s property so the better solution might just be to hang fancy bedspreads over the walls and take them with you when you go, or keep looking until you find a place that’s more to your taste.

That seems like a lot of cost and effort for something of no real benifit.

You have no right to film public space? What?

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle!

This is a great idea for myself! Actually i wanted to develop it into a product, it would be a limitation for the customers because these matchsticks are not commonly available in my country :(

OHMYGOD THANK YOU! THIS IS AMAZING, I DIDN'T KNOW IT EXISTED

You can buy adhesive match striker stickers.

Example: 0.5"x2" Match Striker Stickers Strike Paper Adhesive Pre-Cut Matches Lighting Strip (50 Pieces, Honeycomb) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B4Z2M9ZF

Turn off the water to the house then open the valve then turn on a cold water faucet somewhere lower to get the water out of the line. If this is not possible keep the valve open and be prepared for the water in the copper line to have to boil off partially before the solder will melt. MAP gas helps as well since it burns hotter in the “water in the line” scenario

A slim non slip silicone case for the tablet would be simple.
Or a piece of the non slip mats you can use on a boat table to stop plates sliding off.

Another idea was to use strike anywhere matchsticks and a strip of sandpaper attached but it's not feasible to limit the kind of matchsticks customers can use? Like if they run out of the matchsticks i sent them, it's not useful?

The goal was to create a customised cute little matchstick holder for the candle for my small business, then i thought if they have to use the match box for lighting them up anyway, what's the use of it?

The solution which came to my mind was cutting off the strip from the side of the matchbox and attaching it with the sides, but it's just the brand name will also be written there so not sure how good of an idea it is?

Depends on the frequencies you are looking to block. Low frequencies(heavy base, drums) you need high mass. Like a rubber ect.

Mid and low frequencies fiberglass, rock wholl, foam. Ect.

For what it’s worth you can check out the governments STC 50 wall detail found on page 19 (pdf p.33) of ICD 705 liked below.

ICD 705

If you are looking to block lots of low frequencies you need to curb your expect unless you are ready to drop serious $$ as it’s extremely hard to stop but sound cow makes some great products but expensive.

Really for any residential application just get as close to the STC 50 wall detail as you can within reason. Note the double layers of drywall.

I glued a piece of an old resistance training rubber band to mine (a flat stretchy ribbon type, it's very grippy)

Ask at Lowe's or some bath remodeling business if they have a bottom channel piece, similar to the one you put in backwards. Then dremel/cut off the little strip you need. OR, take out the one you put in wrong and put it in right. Good luck.

May as well not glue it until you're sure you're happy with it. Regular double-sided tape would be sufficient and less permanent.

Did you look at gaffer’s tape??

Oh, that's a cool idea, and I have some at home, actually! I'm going to try it and report back.

Would you glue it to the stand, or just line it?

There’s some special soundproofing insulation out there that you can perches.

If you don't put up vapor barrier, you'll always be thinking about it. One chance to do it and the time is now

I have used a dab of silicone based glue ( E7000, I think) on the item-to-surface contact areas and placed it on wax paper to dry. That keeps it level. When dried, the wax paper peels away easily.

Dafuq am I looking at? Jesus

Do it right

Most hardware stores should carry a little utility roll of insulation. Usually 16"x48". Significantly cheaper than a bundle of rockwool, but obviously not as good

The faced insulation acts as a vapor barrier!! But if you had used unfaced they do have a smart barrier that allows to breath when moister is present and when not it acts as a solid. Pretty cool stuff.
